Virgin Media O2 has launched its most ambitious Black Friday 2025 campaign, combining exceptional broadband discounts, record savings on flagship smartphones, and exclusive rewards through the Volt programme. Running from November 6 through December 10, 2025, these offers deliver substantial value for new customers and existing households seeking to upgrade.
Virgin Media Broadband Black Friday Deals
Three Months Free on Select Packages
The headline offer: New eligible customers can enjoy Virgin Media broadband completely free for three months when selecting premium packages including M500 and Gig1 on 24-month contracts.
What’s included:
- Full broadband speeds with no throttling during promotional period
- Home phone service (where applicable)
- Entertainment bundles available on select packages
Why this matters: At an average saving of £110 over the first three months alone on M500 packages, this represents exceptional entry-level value compared to competitors.
Contract terms: Valid on selected packages only with a 24-month contract. Students, customers selecting 30-day rolling contracts, and Essential Broadband subscribers are excluded.

Up to £200 Switching Credit
For customers switching from another UK provider: Virgin Media will credit up to £200 toward your bill, offsetting early termination fees from your previous provider.
How it works:
- Provide your final bill from your previous provider (not older than 30 days from your Virgin Media order date)
- Confirm all early termination fees were paid in full
- Claim the credit within 60 days of activating Virgin Media service
- Credit appears on your account (capped at the actual value of termination fees, up to £200)
Eligibility: Switching customers only. Student broadband, 30-day rolling contracts, and Essential Broadband customers are ineligible. The credit won’t apply during your first 14 days of service, and cancelling before it’s applied forfeits the entire credit.

No Setup Fee
Standard Virgin Media setup costs £35, but customers purchasing online during Black Friday pay zero setup fees, providing an additional saving.

Virgin Media is recognised by Uswitch as the UK’s “Most Reliable Broadband Provider”, based on independent analysis from Opensignal’s UK Fixed Broadband Experience Report (December 2024, analysing Jul-Sep 2024 performance).
